SHOW NOTES FOR EPISODE 19

It doesn't get much better than this, my friends. This show
starts out with an interview with my friend Brian Misko of House of Q, a
barbecue champion many times over and maker of a great line of
barbecue sauces and rubs. Brian tells some great stories from the
barbecue trail and shares some killer techniques.

Next up is a
return visit from Meathead, the man behind the amazing website
www.amazingribs.com. Meathead, who knows the art and
science of outdoor cooking like no one else, has some fun busting
another barbecue myth.

Finally, I
get to do a deep dive into the world of Kentucky Barbecue with Wes
Berry, author of The Kentucky Barbecue Book. Wes is a university
English prof who went on a journey of discovery through his great
state. In the process he gained some insights into the history of
barbecue in America and traced back the roots of a traditional
Moore County dish, pork blade steak with a crazy "sop." He shares
the recipe for that dish, along with another tasty sauce and
something called cornbread salad. You can find the recipes in
yesterday's blog post.

I'D LOVE TO
HEAR FROM YOU!

Back in
May, with the help of producer/editor Darcy Reynolds, I relaunched
this podcast with a vision of creating an entertaining, informative
show about outdoor cooking with professional-quality sound. I
wanted to showcase longer interviews with fellow barbecue fanatics
and give listeners a richness and depth about the smoky world of
barbecue that's hard to find anywhere else on the internet. Kind of
a cross between a radio show and an audio book. Something that you
can listen to in the car, or while doing chores or working out, or
while you're getting ready to cook up some
barbecue.

Did I
succeed? I need your feedback to help me get ready for next
season.

Write
me at rockinronnie@ronshewchuk.com, tweet me @rockinronnie, or post something on
the Barbecue Secrets Facebook page. Let me know what you
liked best about this season, and what I can do to improve the
show. Tell me if there's anyone you'd like me to interview. And, if
you know any potential sponsors, please connect me with them -- I'd
love to start next season with a couple of marquee
sponsors.

Thanks
for listening! I'll try to post at least a couple of new shows over
the winter. In the meantime, keep on making that beautiful blue
smoke!
